He places you smack in the middle of people who faced their go point, when actions-or lack of them-determined the fates of individuals, companies, and countries. - Why on earth did Robert E. Lee send General George Pickett on an almost suicidal charge against the Union lines at Gettysburg? - How does the leader of a firefighting crew make life-or-death decisions when one direction means safety, the other danger? - You've just assumed responsibility for a scandal-wracked corporation, a company teetering on the brink of disaster.
